About me

Hello there!

My name is Matti Hänninen, and I am a third year game development student from Tampere, Finland.
I am currently working as a programmer / game developer at Hologram Monster, where we are developing a 3D platformer game with Unreal Engine together with a small team.


I have a good amount of experience in a few programming languages ​​(Java, C++ and Python), databases and MySQL, version control with Git, Perforce and Azure DevOps, 3D modeling and animation with Blender, game development with Unreal Engine 4 and a little bit with Unity. I am also familiar with project work and working in a SCRUM team.

I am a breezy team player and I try to take everyone's opinion into account.
I'm positive and kind individual, with an eye for detail. I consider imagination and creativity as some of my most valued assets as a game developer. Video games have always been my passion, and with that same passion I strive to do my work.

In addition to video games, my hobbies include music. I play guitar and sing and do band activities. I also love watching Disney movies with my wife, and Disneyland Paris is my favorite place in the world.

Portfolio

Videos of work I have done during my studies.

The first one is a 2D sidescroller game made with Unreal Engine 4. This was a group project. On this project I participated in level design, as well as general programming. I also composed and recorded the music for the game.

The second one is an endless runner style Hugo game made with Unreal Engine 4. This was my very first UE project ever.
Laggy, rough, and lacking content but wanted to share nevertheless.

The remaining four are music from the soundtrack of Phantasmal Abyss.
